Abstract

A data storage device is disclosed comprising a head actuated over a disk. A first control circuit comprises a pattern detector configured to detect at least one pattern in write data and generate a corresponding multi-state signal, and a transmitter configured to transmit a first differential signal representing the write data and a second differential signal representing the multi-state signal. A second control circuit comprises a receiver configured to receive the first differential signal and the second differential signal, and a write driver configured to generate a write current applied to the head based on the first differential signal and configured to adjust at least one property of the write current based on the second differential signal.
